Given the fact that antiwar movies released during 2007 turned into major financial sinkholes, I'm not sure--especially given Madonna's history of doing really bad movies!--if she could pull this off. Americans don't WANT antiwar movies now.

I used to call her McDonna. But then I really started liking the restaurant.

But now Madonna has stunned the movie industry with plans to remake Casablanca – and this time set it in Iraq.It probably stunned the movie industry to find out that Madonna was still alive.

Madonna’s “reputation as an actress” is already made. She stinks. As Dorothy Parker said about another actress, “She has an emotional range from ‘A’ to ‘B’.”.

Funny how the status she has will never be enough. She still wants to be a serious actress.

Weird Al Yankovic did a much better remake of "Like A Virgin" than Madonna could ever do of Casablanca.
Do of?

Casablanca is, hands down, my favorite movie. I will be banning this "remake," if made.

Casablance has never struck me as an anti-war film. Rick is anti-war at first but ends up sacrificing in order to fight.
Madonna’s mind is actually aging faster than the rest of her if she thinks she can take on Inrid Bergman’s part.

She’ll probably want to put a couple propellers on her breasts and play the part of that twin engine plane warming up in the final scene.

Top to bottom I think you would be hard pressed to find a film that was better cast than Casablanca. That alone is reason enough to never consider remaking it.
To: RayChuang88
She should redo a movie like Debbie’s Grandma Does Dallas.

Sorry did not read the entire article but will the sympathy of the Nazi resistance be replaced by the sympathy Al-Qaeda insurgents?
Instead of ‘Play it again, Sam’ will it be ‘Blow it up again, Osama’? By looking at films dealing with Iraq lately I would not be surprised.

Wow. Madonna? You do realize that Pamela Anderson already tried this with her huge success “Barb Wire”, don’t you? I’ll expect for this to do just as well.

She ought to do a one-man production of Rocky Horror Show instead.
